FAQs

What is the thread diameter of these U-bolts?

These bolts feature a standard 10mm (M10) diameter thread.

Can I use these for marine applications?

The gold-plated finish offers good corrosion resistance, but for constant saltwater submersion, stainless steel hardware is generally recommended.

Are the backing plates included in the 4-pack?

Yes, the kit includes 4 backing plates, 4 U-bolts, washers, and nyloc nuts.

How thick are the included backing plates?

The backing plates are 6mm thick to provide enhanced load distribution and durability.

Can I reuse the nyloc nuts?

It is generally advised to replace nyloc nuts if they have been removed, as the nylon locking mechanism loses its effectiveness after multiple uses.

What is the internal length of the bolts?

The total internal length of the U-bolt is 130mm.

Troubleshooting

Nuts are difficult to turn onto the thread

Ensure the threads are free of debris or paint buildup. Apply a small amount of lubricant to the thread if resistance persists.

Bolt does not fit around the mounting frame

Double-check that the frame width does not exceed 50mm; if the frame is wider, this specific size is incompatible.

Nyloc nut is loose after initial installation

Verify that the bolt has been tightened to the appropriate torque specification; nyloc nuts should only be reused if the nylon insert still shows visible resistance when threading.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-tensile steel construction for superior durability
  • Gold-plated finish provides excellent rust protection
  • Complete set includes all necessary mounting hardware
  • Nyloc nuts ensure hardware stays tight under vibration
  • OEM-grade quality ensures precise fitment

Cons

  • Fixed dimensions require exact measurement before purchase
  • Gold-plated finish may eventually wear off if exposed to harsh acidic environments
  • Not intended for non-standard bolt patterns or specialized custom frame widths

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation Steps:

  1. Measure the width of your frame or beam to ensure it matches the 50mm internal width specification.
  2. Position the U-bolt over the frame and thread it through the mounting points of your axle or bracket.
  3. Slide the 6mm backing plate onto the threaded ends of the bolt.
  4. Apply the provided washers and tighten the nyloc nuts evenly to ensure consistent tension across the bracket.

Compatibility: These bolts feature an M10 thread. Verify that your existing brackets are drilled for 10mm hardware.

Care: Periodically inspect the hardware for signs of stress or movement. While the gold plating is corrosion-resistant, applying a light coat of anti-seize or silicone-based lubricant to the threads during installation can prevent galvanic corrosion and make future adjustments significantly easier.
